Just a quick update: Been to Longmont, Estes Park, Loveland, Greeley & Commerce Park.

Not too much in the way of destruction on the routes we were told to use (took 3.5 hours to get to Estes Park today), but I do have a couple pics. I'm leaving Saturday morning for another trip (non-disaster but for work). Things are still bad in some areas (Lyons is messed up bad as well as Boulder). Stay safe.

I'm glad to hear Lyons still exists. There's been a lot of news about Boulder, EP, Longmont, etc but nobody has said a thing about that nice little town.

I think that's mostly due to the fact it was one the hardest hit early and has been cutoff from civilization since, but there has been plenty said about Lyons. I'm lucky enough to live in Arvada which was spared a lot of the damage CC and Boulder encountered despite being just a short distance from both.

Guess i didn't turn to the news often enough then; I hadn't heard much except some of my friends thought it was destroyed. I'm in Thornton, myself. We got tons of rain but thankfully (aside from my backyard flooding almost to the house) we took minimal damage. It's good to live on a slope sometimes I guess.

How boring was Greeley? I saw how high the water was, but I had to leave soon after.

Didn't see much of it besides the Island Grove Center where we built a recovery center.

Ahh. Not much to see. Anyways, Thank you for your efforts. Luckily enough, I'm on high ground, but I'm sure all of the people affected surely appreciate your help.
